Only you, in your interactive mind set, Belief…. can allow or deny, through admission unto yourself as the undivided one in every aspect of the physical material domain of choice.

No male, No female…. to step through the 9th sphere without a need for a physical death then maybe this is how the dimensional kingdom that we are actually part of is unblocked and revealed??

the Hebrews added titles to their books as well.


Right, but I assumed him and I were talking about John and I was meaning the New Testament. My fault for not being clear.

Faith, not religion, will get you to Heaven. Faith and religion are totally different things from each other.

Faith is something you feel and find inside you, it cannot be acquired through teaching or praying to a statue in a church/mosque/religious building, or reading from The Holy Bible or The Koran or any other such scripts. That isn't Faith, it's following and practising a religion.

Faith can be found through our life experiences, and we usually find it from deep inside us when we are in life-threatening situations, or when at our lowest in life, hopelessness, with nowhere else to turn, we will pray to God for His help. Even people who are opposed to religions will pray to God when in despair or face death.

It's difficult to describe and put into words, but Faith is something you won't understand properly until you find it for yourself. And when you do find it, you'll know exactly what I am talking about and will understand why it is so difficult to describe it. It all sounds a bit vague but I know that those who do have real Faith will understand what I am saying. Maybe they can describe it better that I have.

Apparently all the religions have the same answer...No.

But they all got a one way ticket to Hell.

are you sure the word you were going for there wasnt "metaphorical"? i can understand how one might get those two words confused. metaphysical, metaphorical...


The beauty of absolute Truth is that it is true in all layers of reality - heaven, earth, etc. So it is both literally and metaphorically true.

I am sure you would, although betting on what heaven will be like is just shallow silliness. Sharing an idea or insight might be why we are here but tossing in betting is childish. Perhaps you can see that.
If you are going to use words then at least try and understand the meaning first. Hey and while you are doing that you might look up humour.
I did ask the OP what he would be doing in heaven. He and another gave an answer. I didn't reply to the first because it wasn't a direct reply to me and in the second instance I replied then edited it out because I wasn't sure if Chester John was being serious or was attempting humour. I did think it was funny.

It's all good

Humor at the expense of others is the basis of bullying. Mockery is wicked. Even within friends groups when it is "all in good fun", it is still toxic. Humor at its best mentions truth while making people laugh in their intense revelation:

I really didn't need all that...and humour at it's best is horses for courses. I posed a question to the OP and responded to your reply. Then I thought 'maybe I have got this wrong and you were being 'tongue in cheek' '. So I glanced at some of your previous posts, just to see if you were being serious, nothing more. Hey, I am very honest.
I don't know why you posted those Bill Hicks videos. He is mocking the ignorant, but it's okay for him!
I do take your point and I did have a little sense of misgiving when posting but there is no malice in me really.
Hey, some say, 'the fool and the chid are closer to God'. Perhaps I am just a foolish chid.

It's all good

The Bible says "Knock, and the door will be open." "Ask, and you will receive."

That's all it requires to get to the Kingdom of Heaven.

I'm sorry u may have took this the wrong way, but I fully respect your opinion. I have been given my Salvation through our Lord, and I am 100% in my mind know without a slightest doubt I'll enter the Kingdom when m y time in this body and on this earth is complete. whenever the Good Lord decides it's my time. There is nothing that can dissuade me from that because I know it in the bottom of my heart. In many religions, God is called by many names. but who is to say it isnt the same God, as my God is, but in their belief, they pray to the same One True God, but only have a different name for Him? He says to not put any other god s before him for He is the one True God. I respect your opinion through, and I do very much enjoy the points you have made, but I know where I will be when I leave this Earth. Just like Pagans. They have every right to choose their fate, and I don't throw my beliefs in anyone's face. My best friend is atheist, but we can talk and not argue once because I RESPECT evryones beliefs and opinions whether I agree or not.

Before I start, I would like to make clear that I am Christian, and I have no doubt what-so-ever that I am going to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven when I leave this earth, but I also believe that you can still enter into Heaven even if you have a totally different belief system other than my own. No human can say whether or not you are going to heaven or hell. That is not for myself, nor any other person to decide. That is a choice between that person and God only, no matter what name they call Him.


Yes they can if they obeyed the 10 Commandments EXODUS 20:1-22, if they had no knowledge of them, they should have listened to their conscience, the 10 Commandments are the archetypes of the good in mankind, programmed in the conscience like: one knows to do the right thing, some psychopaths don't have conscience OK they are doomed.

I do not quite understand your premise. Firstly you stated that "I have no doubt what-so-ever that I am going to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven when I leave this earth" then you stated that "No human can say whether or not you are going to heaven or hell." That is very unclear to my understanding.

It is very clear in most English bibles that every person stands in immediate judgment upon death of the soul. If one is quite sure that they will be in heaven then that means to me that it circumvents judgment. If one is to be judged then how is that one to be judged knowing his/her judgment prior to being judged? Certainly does not make sense to me.

What about all the people who died before Jesus was around? Surely it's not fair to condemn those people to hell?

In some circles of religions, it is believed that before the Christ Jesus appeared, all of the dead spirits were contained in the nether world of Sheol. As the Christ Jesus died and was entombed for three days and three nights it is believed that He presented Himself as the Son of God to the all of the dead who were in Sheol. This included all spirits of all dead souls regardless of whether they were bad or good.

This was actually the very first gathering of sanctified dead spirits and those who were judged by their deeds and found worthy were then the very first to be allowed into the kingdom of heaven. Those who were not found worthy remained in Sheol (hell). Since then all who die are immediately judged and either enter Sheol (hell) or the kingdom of heaven.

In this belief it covers all people of the race of Adam. The civilizations before Adam is another matter and not connected to the Adamic race.

The way it turned out, the Greek and Latin pantheons seem to represent the all-time winners when it comes to actually going to heaven-- or space with its stars and lights in the heavens beyond the clouds and the sky. «The Eagle» Apollo and its Saturn rocket, eh? I don't know for sure, but as far as I know no Christian saints have ever reached orbit or been in space.

I believe heaven is in another dimension, the dimension of THE ARCHITECT of our computer emulation we call reality. That dimension could well be another computer emulation (recursion) or the real infinite universe.
